I am a newbie to bulletins in general and I have been asked to suggest a robust bulletin s/w. I've vbulletin to be the best so far in my research but I am hoping to get a better validation from you pros!!

- Forum moderator/owner should get an email every time a new posting occurs on the forum
- Forum users can subscribe to either a category/subcategory or even a particular thread or discussion topic
- Forum users can either get updates on all postings at the end of each day via an email or they can get an email each time a new posting occurs
- Forum should support Single-sign on with the Portal - our portal is java based
- Forum should have the ability to mark certain threads and publish as FAQ
